When a serious menace threatens MI6, James Bond is on the case -- putting aside his own life and personal issues to hunt and obliterate the perpetrators. Meanwhile, secrets arise from M's past that strain Bond's loyalty to his longtime boss.
Time for a change, although I understand that Judi Dench is retiring, I am going to miss her performance as M. She was just perfect. I enjoyed Skyfall, specially the coming back to Scotland, and the confusion between the Agency and the outside world. I felt, as probably everyone, that Javier Bardem was the perfect bad guy, uncomfortable, manipulating, ugly, and sensual... A very weird combination that confronted to the impeccable M and Bond, makes an interesting triangle. The action is solid, the opening music of Adele in the perfect tradition of Bond soundtracks. I just don't know how they are going to have more James Bond after this one.
